In context
8It seems senseless not to enjoy what is pleasant, yet not disgraceful; and from notions of sinfulness, to reject the boons of nature.
9And you will be acting, I think, still more senselessly, if you follow vain conceits about the truth.
— 4 Maccabees 5:10 —
11Will you not awake from your trifling philosophy? and give up the folly of your notions; and, regaining understanding worthy of your age, search into the truth of an expedient course?
12and, reverencing my kindly admonition, have pity upon your own years?
